Amplifiers For Speakers

We are using these cables to chain amplifiers together and they work great.

I use it for guitar amplifiers and home appliances - have been working great.

If these amplifiers give you what you ask for, they are great, a clean and strong sound.

I use this product to connect power amplifiers to a speaker network.

Using it for guitar but appears to suit small amplifiers well.

Works great. Was able to use to secure 2 amplifiers from tampering with volume controls.

From a listening perspective, there is really no difference in the sound reproduction between the Crown XLS 1000 & 1002 series of power amplifiers ... both easily meeting an audiophile's criterion of a perfect amplifier ... a straight wire with gain. The most visible difference with the XLS 1002 Amp series is the symmetrical restyling of the front panel with a larger & brighter centrally-placed LCD display, clipping indicators & controls. The front air vents have also been re-positioned to provide more efficient cooling. Apart from a new pair of AUX connectors (for the sleep mode), the back panel's input/output connectors are unchanged. Not readily visible, but several enhancements have been made to the menu options. In addition to the older XLS 1000 menu options for configuring the amp outputs & cross-over frequencies, one can now ... select between an input sensitivity of 1.4 Volts (default) and 0.75 Volts, set a time-delay to put the LCD display to sleep, toggle on & off the blue front panel lights and the green signal level indicators, and lock the menu buttons. These are all nifty new enhancements, but one needs to bear in mind that there is no significant audible differences in the the sound performance between the two series of XLS Crown amplifiers ... both are amazing performers. A note to Canadian buyers ... due to some unspecified reason, B&H cannot ship any of the Crown XLS series of amplifiers to Canada. However one can order them online from a Canadian supplier, e.g., Axe Music Inc. or Moog Audio.

We have never had a failure on amplifiers or processors since starting to use the Furman many years ago. The PL-8C is a standard part of all our systems.

I don't know why the LD Systems amplifiers are not more popular. They blow away the competition for live vocals. The tiny 2 drivers in other line arrays just can't accurately reproduce the lower midrange and rely too much on the sub. The LD Systems CURV 500 sounds warm and rich and the horizontal dispersion is fantastic. The mixer is quite limited as to what it can do, so you may want to add a compact digital mixer.

We have used Bogen amplifiers at all our sites. They have always been reliable and dependable for our paging systems. I would recommend Bogen to any business. Easy setup and clear sounding.
